In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

s390: avoid using global register for currentstackpointer

Commit 30de14b1884b ("s390: currentstackpointer shouldn't be a function") made currentstackpointer a global register variable like on many other architectures. Unfortunately on s390 it uncovers old gcc bug which is fixed only since gcc-9.1 [gcc commit 3ad7fed1cc87 ("S/390: Fix PR89775. Stackpointer save/restore instructions removed")] and backported to gcc-8.4 and later. Due to this bug gcc versions prior to 8.4 generate broken code which leads to stack corruptions.

Current minimal gcc version required to build the kernel is declared as 5.1. It is not possible to fix all old gcc versions, so work around this problem by avoiding using global register variable for currentstackpointer.
